HANDS-ON SAILOR ONBOARD SYSTEMS For years, I've been touting the advantages of 24-volt DC systems on boats. ELECTRICAL FUNDAMENTALS One big worry about cruising boats and their wiring has to do with voltage drop, where battery-level voltage doesn't actually reach the appliance the battery is supplying. SUMMING IT ALL UP I see no letup in the development of hybrid and fully electric power systems in the automotive world, and I believe that this reality will continue the drive toward higher DC voltage systems across the board.
